Terms & Concepts
  • Pre-market and after-hours trading: Stock trading that takes place before the regular market session opens and after it closes, extending the time investors can place trades.
  • Fractional trading: A feature that lets investors buy part of a share rather than a full unit, reducing the capital needed to gain exposure.
  • ETF: An exchange-traded fund is an investment fund that trades on an exchange and typically tracks a basket of assets, sectors, or an index.
